No, recalling Marc Guiu on loan is still shorting one. Instead of that, they should beg Jackson to come back.

Who be harder? Anyway anything coming from Portuguese league should be looked at with microscope. Be like they have the poorest set of defenders in that league.

I don’t know why Airmark’s Belotti is not cooking.

This got me cracking.

Ihebu4chelsea:
what role is Enzo doing perfectly?

Create chances, assist, run into the box and score etc.

Ihebu4chelsea:
If Caicedo gets injured, what do you think will happen to our team?

Oga! The coach decides the role players play on the field not players themselves

Enzo role is totally different from Caicedo and he's doing perfectly. EOD

There are more than 7,200 $1m Nigerians.

Too many. Our legislators alone.

Salarys:
Sarcasm

Kkk

Enzo5:
Fulham boss face is full of smiles

Which smile? Person wey dey vex.

Gucciboy:
Enzo is not fit to be a Chelsea player,he should be coming in after 70mins.

I have always maintained Santos x Caicedo partnership.

He is not fit bit he has solved our in efficiency of scoring goals.

E bi like say many of you forget easily.

diggz:
The creativity upfront is lacking because there’s no midfield to support them. Literally everyone is trying to cover for the ghostworker, while he strolls on the pitch like a pregnant 10months old woman.

The one they created for Pedro one on one, what did he do with it?

Abi, you think Fulham come sell guguru and epa?

They are defending deep into their half when they are without ball.

diggz:
Abeg ….Boehly should epp us get rid of the ghostworker come end of the season. Even old man Jorginho wasn’t this bad. Enzo is terrible against any half decent team. It’s downright shameful at this point.

Terrible!!!! Make una dey deceive unaself.

DMerciful:
Bitter? Not at all. I'm balling.
Tinubu has never been popular in Lagos but captured the state using thuggery

Tinubu has never been popular!!! How did he win elections under the noise of opposition party?

In the last presidential election, he was not. I agree because nobody wanted Muslim Muslim ticket but now that he didn't Islamize Nigeria, he has regained his popularity over PO.

DMerciful:
In a free and fair election, Makinde will defeat Tinubu in SW!

Why? Bros, wake up. That will not happen.

Gucciboy:
Fake news

I think so.

Swap deal!!!? Isak for Lopez?

Chelsea still interested In Lopez despite loan deal.

Enzo5:
Tottenham & Newcastle want Fermin Lopez, the spurs are willing to offer €100M for him. please if this is a fabrication from spanish media, if you follow any top tier journs from spain twitter share the handle let me follow

Enzo5:
good luck to them both as long as newcastle isn't bringing that 100m to rbl and xavi is still faithful to the agreement idc

Faithful bawo!!! Se d one way we dey flex with another player.

Griffon:
BREAKING: Alejandro Garnacho to Chelsea, here we go! Deal done between #CFC and Man United.

Garnacho only wanted Chelsea and will sign seven year deal at the club for fee close to £40m package.

Story from July, confirmed. 🇦🇷

> @SportPremi

This boy got talent though.

Enzo5:
chelsea goofed realtime after being paired with barca they are have gone from saying 60m to 90m, thought chelsea already said 60m was too much for fermin

I heard Newcastle wants to pay 100m. Chaii!!!

Maybe that influenced Barca to wanting to cash out.

Enzo5:

90m?

Enzo5:
now what is the point of disturbing for lopez, I can imagine tottenham telling xavi that this guys are about to abandon you and tbh xavi has tried if he decides to sign for tottenham who can blame him.
It's this same nonsense behave we used and lost kudus and olise, you want to sign everybody look at out rio nguam

you know we need back up attacking midfielder and have UCL registration issues and you didn't even use paez

I think they prefer that Barcelona player.

Is Xavi in London now?

MorataFC:
Barcelona’s reported value of Fermín López is €69m (£60m ) — a figure Chelsea would be reluctant to meet.

[Matt Law]

60m is okay.

Enzo5:
Chelsea shot themselves in the foot enquiring about fermin. if reports were to be believed they had an agreement for about 50m pounds with rbl and wanted to sell them nkunku or sell nkunku to be able to buy him but now they have sold nkunku but have to compete with tottenham who have 60m pounds to spend.

one reporter said chelsea are not happy with tottenham approach, as of xavi is already their player. you have player that has rejected others for you yet you are looking for away match that is still considering and thinking about it.

this kind of scenario can end up being, chelsea don't get either because they can't stay one place

But they want 70m now. If they accept 60m from Tottenham then we can't be blamed.

We self do am for Benfica now.

Chaiiiii! The will of God be done.

We will see what God will do.

googi:
Most of the misunderstanding came from all Oba (s) trying to elevate themselves as par with the Queen or King of England.

Ooni is a unique title in Yoruba world. It was the Ooni that crowned Oba, the descendants or children of Ife that established themselves over their domains as they moved out of Ife and expanded.

Alafin was a Prince of Ife and Oduduwa that became a powerful General that came to the rescue of Ife and other Yoruba.

Until them Alafin himself was routed and driven out of Oyo by Fulani.

It was Ibadan that later played the role of Yoruba Protector like Alafin. Ibadan save Yoruba by stopping Fulani at Osogbo.

No English word can fully translate into Yoruba. Ooni crowned Oba (Kings). The title of king is below him.

The truth is, Fulani never destroyed Oyo. Na Yorubas from Ilorin use their own hand destroy Oyo with the little aid of Fulanis.

Adexxi:
Olofin Adimula was later changed to Ooni and ife still call ooni as Olofin Adimula. Even your Alaafin was called Oloyo from outset, it was Atiba that changed it to Alaafin after Ogbomosho gave him that small land to occupy because Oyo ile was ransacked by the Fulanis

Who gave Ogbomosho land in the first place?

Osariemen12:
Yorubas should be thankful to us for birthing Prince Izoduwa (though banished from our Bini kingdom). His banishment led to the founding of Ile Ife because he settled there. It is his name Izoduwa that most Yorubas corrupt to Oduduwa which has no meaning in Yoruba language as of today.

It is high time young people in the southwestern part of Nigeria were taught the real history and origin of their founding fathers instead of the cock and bull story of someone falling from the sky. It is shameful.

In all, all the kings in Yoruba land are subjects of the Oba of Bini. I urge His Royal Majesty Oba Ewuare the 2nd, the great son of Oba Akporokporo of Bini Kingdom, to weigh into the tussle between his two subjects and settle whatever the case may be as a father.

Oba gha tokpe'ere!

1. Oduduwa did not found Ile ife. He wasn't the first Oba of Ile-Ife.

2. What was the name of Oduduwa's father?

FaloNairaman:
The Benin people believe that Oduduwa, called Prince Ekaladerhan, was the only son of the exiled King Ogiso Owodo. They believe that Ekaladerhan (or Oduduwa) exiled himself from Benin even before his father, King Ogiso Owodo was banished from Benin. Ekaladerhan or Oduduwa went to and founded Ile-Ife where he became King. After King Ogiso Owodo was deposed and banished, the Benin people went in search of the only son of the King, Prince Ekaladerhan (Oduduwa) with the aim of persuading him to return to Benin to succeed his banished father.

Instead, Ekaladerhan (Oduduwa) sent his son, Prince Oranmiyan, to Benin. But there was an administrator named Ogiamien, appointed by the people of Benin to administer Benin during that period of interregnum. Like what the late Gen. Sani Abacha did during Ernest Shonekan’s interim government, Ogiamien was nursing his own ambition – to create his own dynasty. He appointed his son to succeed him. Even though he was resisted by Benin people, Ogiamien and other warlords who contested the throne troubled Oranmiyan and made his stay uncomfortable so much that Oranmiyan decided to return to Ile-Ife, describing Benin as Ile-Ibinu (the land of vexation).

The Benin account has it that Oranmiyan reigned as Benin King from AD 1,170, although his palace was at Usama, an outskirt of the city, due to the crisis. When he eventually left, he left behind his Benin queen, Erinmwinde who gave birth to a son, who later became Oba Eweka the First in the year AD 1,200. Historians regard the beginning of the reign of Oranmiyan as the beginning of the second dynasty of kings in Benin kingdom.

One implication of the Benin line of history is that Oduduwa, whom the Yoruba claim as their father, did not fall down from heaven after all as they claim. Nobody has ever fallen down from heaven. Even Jesus who is believed to have come from heaven had to be born into the world by a woman.

Yoruba people believe that Oduduwa who fell down from heaven had a son who went on a military campaign and founded the Benin Kingdom. But from the Benin perspective, we know that before the return of Oranmiyan to Benin, the Ogiso dynasty in Benin, which saw the reign of 31 kings, had already come to pass. Of these two conflicting historical accounts of the Benin and Yoruba Kingdoms, the Benin version appears to be more tenable. Between AD 1440 and 1606, was the era of warrior kings. This corresponded to the period of Oba Ewuare the Great and Oba Ehengbuda.

Apart from the brief reigns of Oba Ezoti and Oba Olua, the rest of the kings that fell within this period were all warrior kings who led their military forces to battle. These fierce warrior kings went on military campaigns, conquering other peoples and expanding Benin’s territories and influences which resulted in empire-building.

The Benin’s capacity to successfully overrun other people’s lands has been attributed to their trade with Europeans at Ughoton, the Benin port, which bequeathed them with guns and ammunition. The Benin Empire at its zenith was said to have extended to River Niger in the east and south, into Yoruba lands (Oyo) and what came to be known as Dahomey.

What is the name of Oduduwa's father?

mfm04622:
At the time, the Ife throne has more prestige.
However, Oyo grew to be an Empire while Ife remained a kingdom, under the control and protection of Oyo!
When Oyo was an empire, all Yoruba land was under her control and protection. Ife was recognized as the throne of Oduduwa, but Oyo later grew to be more important and more influential

All Yorubaland was never under Oyo. Take note.

oz4real83:
the Oba of Benin is the father of them all. Izoduwa that was corrupted to Oduduwa was a Benin Prince who migrated to Oyo after being banished from the Benin empire. It was he that became the first Alaafin of oyo and gave birth to the first Ooni of ife and his last born also became the Oba of Benin. The yorubas will never agree that Oduduwa came from Benin. They would rather tell you either fell he from the sky or he came from Egypt using Air peace, uber cab or tesla🤣🤣🤣

What is the name of Izoduwa's father?

Maimakawa1:

Oga! Footballers expire date. As long as em dey score crucial goals and assist, I am okay with him.
